Kobo H20 is a solid choice

Those fancy kid beds are 4-5k a pop. Or maybe they're pallets of multiple beds? It's really not clear.

Either way who is spending that kind of cash gambling on AliExpress?

Those PS4 riser clips somebody linked upthread got to the UK in less than a week.

I assume there was a local distributor?

A small supplier can produce knock-off designer clothes, but not knock-off batteries.

Knock off batteries are super common when dealing with China and they're less sophisticated than you'd think. Rather than just not making them to the same standard I've seen AA cells that were literally hollow tubes with smaller random cells inside.

(This was at work when some products were failing and turns out something like 30% of the batteries supplied by the manufacturer were fake. I'm still amazed that the effort was worth the money)

Why does this product exist

US $8.80 65%OFF | Beer Foam Maker iBeer Portable Beer Foamer 2 in 1 Easy To Disassemble 450mAh Special Purpose For Bottled Beer And Canned Beer

Edit: I appear to be able to apply for unlimited freebies in the android app

It's to give canned beer a draft-like head (but at the cost of the carbonation level). There were a few products unsuccessfully launched in the UK about five years ago to do it.
